Story
My name is Loki, I'm 11 months old about 69 lbs a pit/lab mix. I am neutered and chipped. I'm up to date on my shots. I'm cream with yellowish eyes and I have a little mole on my nose. I love to play with dog toys outside and need a yard that I can run around in as I have lots of energy. My favorite game is tug a war and chasing after balls. I love to give lots of kisses. I am good with kids. I am potty trained and will let you know when I need to go outside to use the restroom. I will be a great family addition.

Story
He’s around 1yr’s old and is very playful and loves TOYS! He Is potty trained and is Crate Trained !He Doesn’t Bark he Gets along with other dogs! The only issue I have is he loves digging holes in the backyard! Could be from boredom and not getting the exercise a dog needs! I have recently bought him large Kongs and been filling them with stuff which has stopped him from digging! The reason for rehoming is I have a special needs grandson that is scared of him! And since he sometimes jumps on him! My grandson thinks he’s gonna do it all the time no matter if he doesn’t jump on him he’s still very scared! I think there is a better home for Rambo out there! We love him but this living situation is what it is and I think it’s for the best!

Story
Trina is a very playful and energetic dog. She is nearly 2 years old, and she never meets a stranger. She is very sociable with other dogs and with other people. She has a mild manner, and she is very loving. Trina has separation anxiety when living with a single person, so the perfect adopter would be someone who has other dogs, school age children, or an active family. She would also do well with someone who is athletic and who likes to share their athleticism with her. She loves to run!! And she loves attention!! She is a good girl, and the only reason she cannot stay with her current owner is due to the owner being recently diagnosed with a medical condition. Trina takes a daily dose of Omeprazole 20mg to help with stomach issues. She easily takes this small pill with her peanut butter snack. Trina is ready to go home with you!!

Story
Gracie Lou is a white female pit around 9 months. She is small animal aggressive. She gets along with dogs that are her size or bigger. She needs bigger dog to play with, and put in her place, she does get along with other dogs that are her size are bigger. I like to call her polar bear because she likes to play like a baby polar bear. She is very energetic although she is slightly aggressive playing. Not sure why she just is that way she loves to play? She has a lot of energy. . If you’d like, we would love to do a meet and greet with you Gracie is an amazing dog and come with slow feeder bowl. She is an amazing dog. She loves people. She loves other dogs and animals that are big/bigger she loves to go for runs she’s a little shy in the car, but she does love to do things, she growls like growls but she hoofs like Chewbacca.

I'm sad to post this but we have to rehome our 4 1/2 year old pitbull. I'm pregnant and she's become too much for me to handle. She is fixed and UTD on her shots. She is good with other dogs! XL kennel included. Disclaimer she is terrified of going down the stairs! But she is super sweet and hyper needs a big yard!

Story
Raya is a beautiful girl who is 3 years old. She will be four on October 11, 2024. We adopted her from the Jacksonville Humane Society two years ago. Raya is very lovable, She loves to cuddle, She loves to follow you around the house, She loves to lay on her bed unless you give her a treat, and then she will eat it on her bed. She loves kids and any person she meets. She loves to go to the beach and go on long walks anywhere. She loves to play as well. She is definitely a dog that loves her toys. She likes to dump them all out and pick which one shes gonna play with her for the day. She also loves to lay down in bed with you or on the couch. She is house trained and rings bells to let you know if she has to go to the potty, knows basic commands, and is crate trained. When she is excited or wants your attention she adorably howls. She has to be in a home with no other animals. Please reach out for more information regarding that. She is a beautiful girl.

Story
Photos are from 4/25/2024 Haku was acquired on December 9, 2023 from my father. My father was hospitalized a few days before and passed away January 31, 2024. Haku is approximately 7 months old (September 9, 2023) . He currently enjoys a raw organic diet, hanging out with his pack friends at the doggy day care, and getting into puppy mischief. He enjoys digging, chew toys, bully sticks, training, and watching others get in the splash pool. LOL. Haku is loyal, friendly, and strong. Wherever you are is where he wants to be. He will need to get plenty of exercise, continue training, and socialization. I would also suggest a masculine influence due to his strength and Alpha personality. I am not looking for any adoption fee. Just a loving home where he can grow and mature into a good companion and working dog.

Story
Pauly D has had a rough past...he was living on the streets when he was hit by a car and he was never claimed. He is just a goofy bundle of joy looking for a forever home to stay safe in. Pauly D needs to be the only animal in the home. He is very sweet but does not seek out affection. He is very independent. So if you are looking for a dog that just wants to hang out, he is so your guy. Ask to see him today!! He would love to go home today!! If anyone deserves it, it's definitely him.

Oh hi! I'm Tootietoot! I'm a gorgeous grey girl and perfect for you! I haven't had much experience with other animals and will need one that's confident enough for me if I do join another, however I do VERY much enjoy my humans. Since I'm still a puppy I do struggle with my manners some, however I have learned a very good routine in my previous home and really hope I can find the next person to give it to me!
